15And I have cast you from before My face, As I have cast out all your brethren, The whole seed of Ephraim.
16And thou dost not pray for this people, Nor lift up for them crying and prayer, Nor intercede with Me, for I hear thee not.
17Art thou not seeing what they are doing In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem?
18The sons are gathering wood, And the fathers are causing the fire to burn, And the women are kneading dough, To make cakes to the queen of the heavens, And to pour out libations to other gods, So as to provoke Me to anger.
19Me are they provoking to anger? an affirmation of Jehovah, Is it not themselves, For the shame of their own faces?
20Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah, Lo, Mine anger and My fury is poured out on this place, On man, and beast, and on tree of the field, And on fruit of the ground, And it hath burned, and it is not quenched.
21Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Your burnt-offerings add to your sacrifices, And eat ye flesh.
